What Can We Connect Gas To?

Anything between your meter and the flame counts as gas fitting, and the appliances we install include:

  • Cooktops and wall ovens
  • Freestanding and inbuilt gas heaters
  • BBQ points on decks and patios
  • Pool heaters
  • New gas lines and extensions to any of the above

Gas hot water has its own whole page, covering storage and continuous-flow units and what a swap involves: hot water systems. If the job starts with a smell instead of a shopping list, the gas leak detection page comes first.

How We Install a Gas Appliance

The order of work stays fixed from one appliance to the next.

  1. 01

    Check the load

    The gas fitter confirms the meter and existing lines can supply the new appliance before any pipe is cut.

  2. 02

    Run the line

    New pipe goes in from the meter out to where the appliance will sit, taking the shortest sound route through, under or around the house.

  3. 03

    Connect and commission

    The appliance is set, connected and lit, and the burners are tuned so the flame is right.

  4. 04

    Test and certify

    The line is pressure-tested, the connections are checked with a gas detector, and the paperwork is signed off.

What Happens After You Ring

  1. 01

    Ring or send the form

    Call (02) 4093 0558 or use the form to explain the fault. We ask enough to bring the right equipment the first time.

    A fixed price first

    A plumber inspects the job and names a fixed figure up front. Nothing gets started until you give the go-ahead.

  3. 03

    The gas work begins

    A new line goes in, the appliance is connected and commissioned, everything is pressure-tested and the compliance certificate is signed.

  4. 04

    Covered for a year

    Every job carries our 365-day warranty on all work. If something we did isn't right, ring the same number.

How Is a Gas Appliance Install Priced?

"Not only all of that but the job came in right on quote." Steve

Four things set the number:

  • Metres of pipe How far the run travels from the meter, and whether it can go under the floor or has to route around.
  • The ground and the path Driveways, pavers and retaining walls in the way add time to the run.
  • The appliance itself A freestanding heater with a flue is a bigger job than a cooktop landing on an existing point.
  • Commissioning Tuning the burners on a multi-burner cooktop or a flued heater takes longer than lighting a single BBQ point.

The full scope of our gas work, including repairs and leak detection, is on the gas fitting page.

Cold Nights on an Exposed Slope

The hill's aspect shapes its heating season

Census figures show 97.8 per cent of dwellings here are separate houses, largely brick-veneer builds from the first wave of development, set on blocks that catch the breeze up top and the western sun in the afternoon.

That exposure cuts both ways

Summers run warm, and elevated winter nights turn cold, so a gas heater on an exposed wall earns its keep through the colder months.

Big households, busy kitchens

The median age at the last census was 35, and 50.3 per cent of homes have four or more bedrooms, so the cooktop and oven in these kitchens cook for a full house.

When We're Not the Right Call

Cutting a new benchtop opening for a cooktop is a kitchen installer's job, and the gas goes on once the bench is ready. A fault on the street side of the meter belongs to the gas distributor.

Questions Before a Gas Install

Can you connect a gas heater in a brick-veneer home from the seventies build?

Yes. Brick-veneer homes from the sixties to the eighties make up much of the hill, and connecting a heater in one is standard gas work. The gas fitter checks the meter can carry the extra load, runs the new line to the spot you want, and pressure-tests it before the heater is lit.

How long does a cooktop installation in Macquarie Hills take?

Swapping a cooktop onto a gas point that is already there takes a short visit: isolate, disconnect the old unit, connect and commission the new one, then test and sign off. Where a fresh line has to come from the meter, or the benchtop cut needs work first, the visit runs longer and the quote covers it either way.

Do you test the line before lighting the appliance?

Every time. Any new pipe is pressure-tested before the appliance goes on, and the finished connection is checked again with a gas detector once assembled. The compliance certificate for the job is yours to keep with the house records.

Can you extend a gas line out to an outdoor BBQ point?

Yes, and outdoor runs are quoted like any other line: by the length of pipe, what the route passes through, and the access to it. We can advise on where the point works best before anything is cut, and the whole run is tested and certified before your first barbecue on it.
